Likelihood to Recommend SE Ranking is a fantastic tool if you are a marketing agency or freelancer looking for a single tool for the majority of your SEO work. It also includes B2B tools like their lead generation widget and white label reports that can help you generate new leads for your business. It would get 10 stars if their database was larger to accommodate research for small geographic areas, but they are always expanding their database so it may just be a matter of time. Research SE Ranking has pricing plans available for every budget.

Viralheat was great during the evaluation process because they were willing to show us exactly what they could do for our company - they even customized accounts for us to show us the true value of signing on.
Read full review Pros Rank racking. It’s really important for us that the ranks are tracked accurately. Monitoring of changes made on the website. We’ve found this feature really useful. Reports. This includes auto reports and manuals. We can easily and quickly create reports to check our SEO progress month by month. Read full review Viralheat’s reporting feature delivers analytics in presentation-grade spreadsheets. I include these images in reports or presentations to different teams. Monitoring is definitely a strong point. I am not limited by a conversation or mention limitation, which is especially important when tracking high-volume products or brands. We are able to quickly identify trends and act accordingly. The user experience is a pleasant one. Viralheat offers many comprehensive features but the layout of the product is simple and intuitive. I’m able to access any feature without having to click around into multiple places. Read full review Cons I really don't think SE Ranking has many flaws. They are also rolling out an app at the moment - SE Ranking Pro - need to test that one. Some more video tutorials on the site on how to use some tools would be helpful. More in-system popups would be more helpful too. Read full review Not being able to reference in the native platform (e.g. LinkedIn, Facebook) the name of companies or users referenced in a post. Not being able to embed images natively. (e.g. Image attached to a post on Viralheat shows up as a url link on the native platform). Would love to see a calendar view of the scheduled posts as well as the current list view.

As an added bonus, they had a member of their team brainstorm the best ways for us to set up our account to ensure we weren’t missing anything. Great customer service.
Read full review Usability They had a huge update recently and the platform is now even better. Although not all the tools are yet in the new design.
Read full review I found it really easy to use and I use it on a daily basis and can easily find my way around. It has the usability of a consumer application for an Enterprise product that does very complex things in a very elegant manner.
Read full review Support Rating The support is great but they don't have 24/7 support. And time zones can also be an issue sometimes. On the other hand there are plenty of guides and videos around to get yourself started. I never really needed support for "big" issues. And the help I got was good enough.
Read full review The customer success team clearly cares about how well we do. They are quick to get back to us and they always offer to jump on a screen share so we can understand and learn new features.

Read full review Alternatives Considered SE Ranking is better than
Serpstat or MOZ or
Ahrefs when it comes to tracking keyword rankings, but it lacks in every other SEO category, such as onsite and offsite SEO metrics, content analysis, etc... It's a good choice for agencies that are interested in tracking keywords for their clients, but other than that it underperforms in every other SEO category.
Read full review We chose Viralheat because it allowed us to do multiple things from one tool. We were able to monitor our brand mentions after each video, song, or album release - this provided us with valuable feedback abouout our brand and music. We were also able to connect our accounts and engage directly with our fans as well as post new content. We monitored the analytics around each release and campaign and were able to determine which were successful.
Read full review Return on Investment The website "health" report has allowed us to fix things that Google might find strange or cause us to lose rankings, which has been very helpful. It's given us more visibility into what exactly our SEO management company is doing and how they are performing, and if things are changing or not. It's very easy to see right from the dashboard. Being able to see how our competitors stack up against us has helped us know where to improve, what to focus on, and how to be even better. Read full review Viralheat has helped me understand how real-life users react to things I build and/or test. I’ve gotten a better understanding of my space and the relevant news surrounding it. This helps me build a better product. It saves me a lot of time. I’m able to quickly monitor what’s important to me. Read full review ScreenShots
